The proposed Purple Link will provide an off carriageway route from Lydney Railway Station to the Town Centre (Swan Road). The existing segregated footway/cycleway along Station road will be converted to shared use as the existing lane widths do not meet current standards for a segregated facility. Improvements to the existing crossings on the A48 will increase visibility and aid users when crossing. The route then passes along the western boundary of the Recreation Trust Ground where a new path and bridge across The Lyd is proposed to provide a direct link to the town centre.
Link Length: 1500mAnticipated usage: Commuting and leisure cycling/walkingProposed facility: Shared use footway/cycleway

The signed route will use existing paths within the Recreation Trust Ground, the recently constructed bus/cycle only road (Cambourne Place) and ‘quiet’ estate roads where traffic speeds and volumes will be low.
Proposed future residential developments to the east of the Oakdale Estate will further extend this route to Nass Lane and Highfield Road.

Lydney Cycle Improvements - Green Link
The proposed Green Link runs between High Street and the Recreation Trust Ground via Dean Academy. The route will improve cycle/walking access to the Dean Academy from residential areas throughout Lydney as well as providing a link from the north west of the town to the railway station (via the purple link).
The improvements will provide a new shared use footway/cycleway heading south from the Dean Academy to the Recreation Trust Ground. In addition, the centre line road marking along Church Road will be removed allowing the on-carriageway advisory cycle lanes to be widened to comply with the latest design guidance.
Link Length: 900mAnticipated usage: Commuting, utility and leisure

advisory cycle lanes (on-carriageway)

Lydney Cycle Improvements - Red Link Rural 1 of 2The rural section of the Red Link connects Aylburton to Lydney town centre and the proposed cycleway network. The Link will also improve access to Bathhurst pool for the town’s residents.
The existing footway along the northern side of the A48 and B4231 will be widened to 3m creating a continuous shared use footway/cycleway. A new parallel cycle and pedestrian zebra crossing will be installed adjacent to the Town Hall to provide a safe connection to the Green Link
Link Length: 1400mAnticipated usage: Commuting, utility and leisure cycling/walkingProposed facility: Shared use footway/cycleway

The urban section of the Red Link runs through the town centre along High Street, Hill Street, and Newerne Street.
The existing building lines mean it is not feasible to provide a dedicated cycle facility along the length of the route, however removal of the centre line road marking will allow advisory up hill cycle lanes to be installed on High Street and Hill Street. These lanes will provide space for cyclists when climbing the hill at lower speeds than passing motorised traffic.
Centre line removal and other road marking alterations throughout the remainder of the route will give result in reduced vehicle speeds, allowing cyclists to ride more comfortably with motorised traffic.
Link Length: 850mAnticipated usage: Commuting, utility and leisure cycling/walkingProposed facility: On-carriageway up hill advisory cycle lanes (High Street and Hill Street)
